Editor’s Note: Guest Post by Sean G. Vunty.com
Something I would like to master in my own life is the concept of going within to find myself and to become free of false ideas of need.
I believe that when you know your true self, you realize that you have no need of anything exterior in order to be happy.
Exterior things we often feel a need for are certain relationships, social status and material possessions.
However, when you go within, all illusions of need dissolve. You can begin to consciously change your beliefs about who you are and how you would like to act in this world.
With an understanding that you need nothing exterior to yourself in order to be happy, you can express your happiness to others without looking for anything in return.
For example, since you do not “need” a social reputation in order to be happy, you can act out your truest feelings at all times. You do not need to fear what others will think of you.
Also, when you know that all true happiness resides within, you will stop searching for things in the world that will make you happy and instead express your happiness to the world. You will stop trying to live your life through others but instead allow others to live through you.
You can love more fully because you know that love is not something that should be limited but rather is an expression of freedom.
You do not become jealous of others because you know you can be happy from within.
Life becomes a whole new experience for you.
Going within is the key to living a life of love as opposed to a life of need. How could you possibly fully love someone if you really just felt that you needed them?
Ways to Go Within
As humans, one of the ways we achieve going within is a practice that we have labeled meditation.
A common misconception is that meditation is only performed while we are sitting in silence. However, meditation can be performed at anytime when are very aware of our surroundings and when we are connected to our inner self while we perform a task.
It is with this post that I encourage you to go within and find the truth about who you are.
Perhaps you would like to set aside time for yourself every day to commune with nature while you go within.
For others you might prefer delving within while you are performing a creative task that will allow you to assert your identity to the world.
In any case, you will find a source of amazing abundance within yourself and you will find that you can be at peace no matter what the external circumstances of your life may be.
It is within that you will find true happiness, a happiness that will allow you to let go of all illusions of need and begin to live a life of love without false ideas of insecurity.
